The Republicans of Indiana are no feather
bed soldiers. They do not care much for
dress parade. They have no stomach for
vaporous platitudes. They understand the
character and desperateness of the contest in
which they are to grapple with the Democ-
racy, intrenched behind the offices and work
ing the spoils for all there is in them. But
they are neither dismayed nor disheartened.
They are ready to respond to the roll call and
push the battle to the gates.

Scarcity of Fuel in Kansas.

WICHITA Kan. Dec. 20.-Snow commenced
falling here yesterday morning and has come
down steadily ever since. Later in the day a

that the blizzard is general over the West and
that it has caught the country without an ade-

PHILADELPHIA papers, irrespective of par

Mr. Childs seems to like it, and the papers
are unquestionably happy, no one else should
object. AS long as Philadelphians indulge
in harmless amusement like this. they should
be left undisturbed.

Storm Effects on Msntaritx.

BY George Sand in North American RevisE
1t has been argued, with more or lass
warmth, that ones disposition is largely
affected by the kim of weather which
prevails when one is born. While this is
possible, it is also fanciful; and but few
put any faith in it. There is, however,
another weather phenomenon 10
which 1 believe; l am convinced
that thought is Influenced, in q
very considerable degree, by the weather.
My notice was first drawn toward this by
a line in one of Voltaire's letters, in
which he said: "My work has been MUIR
ky to-day, because the weather was MUIR
KY" From this time on, took close and
careful account of my mental condition
during various kinds of weather. =
Once, as experiment, l planned two
novels, to be worked on simultaneously.
The one plot was shaped during a stormy
period, and the other during brief sea-
son of sunshine and summer glory which
Immediately followed. Whenever it was
stormy, worked upon the storm-planned
novel, and whenever it was bright l
worked upon the other. Ia each instance
l wholly surrendered myself to
the moods which the weather
stirred up within me, and made no effort
to shake of the good cheer of the one or
the dependency with which the other en-
comprised me. AS a result, the novel
upon which was settled no shadow of the
storm talnt was cheerful and good hu-
mOred; but the other was so bitter,
mournful and vindictive that 1 never
printed it.

bars of iron made by himself from Scotch
| pig to change from tough fbrous to
brittle crystalline structure in travelling
| by rail only from the north Of France to
Paris. This is, of course, an extreme in
stance.
Again, recent research has demon
strated that because q structure with
stands large quiescept load that fact is
! little proof of stability under repeated
shocks and vibrations. Metals are be-
| lieved to have a "life." A bar, for ex-
ample, may stand a million vibrations
| and break down at the million and hrst,
and yet the last shock may be lighter
than preceding ones. Attempts, however,
to reduce this law to practical application
have elected an abundance IF conflicting
evidence; but, nevertheless, it is well
settled that in no department of
mechanics is an extended course Of
actual experimenting more urgently
needed or of graver public importance.
| STRENGTH OF THE TAY BRIDGE.
The strength of the Tay bridge at the
time of It's building was pronounced "per-
haps the most remarkable structure in
the world" Engineering, British mag
szine, speaking Of its test, Wnen FIVE en-
gines, weighing $50 tons, were placed on
single span, said: "The result is the
complete establishment of this fact $50
important to the public that the bridge
is strong out of all proportion to it's pos
sible necessities. As a matter of fact,
the load which the structure is calculated
to carry is six times greater than that to
which il was subjected"
And yet this great bridge, which cost
81, 760, 900, collapsed within q few months
after it was finished, the accident being
the only one in all railroad history in
which no survivor lived to tell the tale.
The theory of crystallizstion put for
ward at the time of the Ashtabula bridge
disaster is now accepted as accounting
for many railroad accidents, and
seems peculiarly applicable to the
fall of the Bussey bridge. Vibrations
and hammer blows would seem TO have
crystallized some portions of the structure
and prepared it for a fall when at last the
''life" OF. a girder had been exhausted and
it broke beneath the engines humping
driving wheels.

AN INVESTIGATION.
Grave Charge Against a West Virginia
State Senator.

CHARLESTON, W. VA, May 1.-Of1cial
investigation was begun yesterday into
the charges made at the close Of the last
session of the Legislature that State Sen
ator Minnear had been Influenced for a
consideration to vote FOR the reelection
of Mr.. Camden (DemOCrat) to the United
States Senate. Shelton Rogers testified
that as personal friend he had visited
Minnear and learned that a letter from
the Republican central committee had
beer sent TO the Republican members of
the Legislature alleging that Camden was
using money to secure his reelection. A
copy of this letter he offered to Camden
and also to United States Collector Nc
Graw for consideration, but they told
him the copy was useless. He
again visited Minnear's home aud
purIoined the original letter, a &c smile
of which was published in a Wheeling
paper. The witness further testified that
he came here and bargained with three
members to vote for Camden in consider
alton of $4,000. The money, he said,
was raised by Republicans, whose names
he refused to give, The Votes were to be
cast on given sigma from him. Camden,
however, said to the witness
that if these men voted
for him he (Camden) would
prosecute them and Rogers, so the signal
was not given and the votes were not
acst. The witness refused to divulge the
names of the parties furnishing the
money, but he said Camden was not one
of them When asked what he received
for the famous letter, the witness said be
received his expenses, and Collector Nc
Graw gave him $50, and later at Wash
ington 500 more. The witness said he
has "spells" after which he is bright, but
at other times he is dull and stupid.
He did not know of the $50 given him in
Washington untIlthe next day, as it was
put in his pocket by McGraw. Camden
did not give it to him. McGraw prom
ised him an annual pass over the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad, which he has
not received.
The committee adjourned until Mon
day. Witness Rogers is subject to
epeleptic fits and had one after the exam
instion was concluded. His acquaintances
say his testimony is not reliable. ~
